Chipotle Chicken and Cauliflower Tacos

  At my house, I put all the fillings on the table and let everyone build their own tacos—they can choose their favorite combinations, so it’s more fun and less fuss. To make these tacos meat free, simply leave out the chicken and double the amount of cauliflower.

  

Ingredients

4 servings

  215g (7½ oz.) can chipotle chillies in adobo sauce, chillies finely chopped and sauce reserved

  1 tablespoon maple syrup

  2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

  2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

  500g (1 lb. 2 oz.) chicken thigh fillets, trimmed and quartered

  500g (1 lb. 2 oz.) cauliflower florets (about 1 head)

  Sea salt and cracked black pepper

  12 small corn tortillas, lightly toasted

  3⅓ cups (300g/10 oz.) finely shredded purple cabbage

  1 cup (12g/½oz) cilantro sprigs

  Pickled red onions, to serve

  Lime wedges, to serve

  

For the lime dressing:

½ cup (140g/5 oz.) plain Greek-style yogurt

  1½ tablespoons lime juice

  Sea salt and cracked black pepper

  

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F. Line 2 oven trays with non-stick baking paper.

  

Step 2

Place the chopped chillies and reserved adobo sauce in a large bowl. Add the maple syrup, garlic and oil and mix to combine.

  

Step 3

Place the chicken in a separate large bowl and top with half the chipotle mixture. Toss to coat. Add the cauliflower to the remaining chipotle mixture and toss to coat.

  

Step 4

Transfer the chicken and cauliflower to the trays and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 20 minutes or until the cauliflower is just charred on the edges, the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.

  

Step 5

To make the lime dressing, place the yogurt, lime juice, salt and pepper in a small bowl and mix to combine.

  

Step 6

Fill the warm tortillas with the cabbage, chicken, cauliflower and coriander. Drizzle with the lime dressing and serve with pickled onion and lime wedges.
